Wanting a Need for speed hot pursuit 3

This is a game suggestion and I would like dev feedback and player feedback. I think EA should return to its roots with the NFS Hot pursuit series. I had the game on ps2 back when it first came out and had playing it since I was very young. I have played almost every NFS game since and haven't felt the same way as before for several reasons: New Technology, Underwhelming music, and just too much being in the game that takes away from the experience. NFS, Midnight Club, and the burnout series were top competitors of its day and for one reason they gave us a feel of what it would be like to be behind a race car and gave a unique experience for NFS that was the police aspect. With that for a new NFS game using the old soundtrack and voice lines (maybe some new add-ons), keep the same tracks, and add a few new ones along with the same cars and modern cars also keeping the same police features and maybe subtracting the bomb dropping Heli I feel and most players I've talked to have agreed with the tech for example shock ram and EMP just take away from the racing experience and are not needed. I want to feel like I'm racing from the police in a real-life situation and any other ideas that are realistic would be nice to see as well. since I know EA is out to make money and rightfully so let's talk about profitability games like Fivem " realism mod for gta v" star citizen, beam ng, and Forza have been very popular as of late and are better rated than NFS for one main reason people like realism and I think maybe some arcade style elements like the nitrous bar from burnout 3 would be cool but not game breaking stuff like an EMP. The next point of profitability is a smaller one but yet huge people who played the original hot pursuit want something along the old lines just adding some new cars I have talked with hundreds if not thousands of people who agree and I am willing If EA wants to go on there social media and do a poll to see what people want and id bet a lot of people would go crazy about this game. I would like to add that development costs should be lower than other titles and it doesn't need a huge team or budget. Since the old game exists it should be just re-building the tracks and cars and putting them in a new engine also if you re-use the voice lines and music you don't need to get all new licenses. this new game would be the same idea and the same game just further down the timeline. Moving it to multiplayer hopefully and adding the ability to be the cop against your friends as busting your friends was hilarious as they break their controller. In conclusion, I think this Title would be a great idea and would be profitable and fun for hours and hours for returning and new players to NFS

  • @Lman405I agree i would also love a return too OG Hot pursuit recipe, but without NOS burnout handling open world scenario. Because the og Hot pursuit games where on closed curcuit race tracks, yeah they where fictional and not licenced. Same actually with High Stakes from 1999, even though we had some tracks inspired by real ones.

    Anyway i think we agree that Nfs need too ditch the wannabe gangster FF street race scene, they have milked this trend since 2003.

  • @BVBgamer88 Considering EA has CM and CM has Bizzarre/Evolution.It's possible for them to make a traditional classic 90s NFS.Also Evolution is currently absorbed by Fake Criterion so they can work on future NFS titles.
  • @Lman405 Yes! Hardcore Hot Pursuit. I personally think a inspired horizon playlist but for missions and win rewards that will be awesome.

    Making a new NFS Hot Pursuit can work. Putting a inspired Forza Horizon playlist which will fit Hot Pursuit instead of Horizon because of the feel and missions. I will be easy to make and put cars even if you want to copy and paste we still will want to it even though we prefer new cars but I love for the sport.
